The Spin Star quilt, sometimes known as the “Card Trick”, features spinning stars and feather quilting. This handmade quilt boasts a scalloped border and 386 yards of hand-quilting, all quilted by one Pennsylvania Amish lady to insure uniform stitching. The quilt is initialed and dated. The Spin Star quilt fits a queen-size bed with a 22 inch drop on each side and a generous length for a pillow tuck.

Homemade quilts combine the warmth of a bed cover with a unique story told by the quilters from Lancaster County, PA. Every homemade quilt is as unique as the family, busy mother or Amish ladies group who uses a needle and thimble to thread stitch on the quilt. Some quilts involve hundreds of hours and thousands of stitches to create a unique patchwork quilt that will last for generations.

A quilt is not just a cozy bed covering: it is also a piece of artwork. The artists who create our quilts pick top-notch vibrant fabrics and organize them into an attractive work of art. Pick from our stock of over 2 hundred handmade quilts for a quilt that best matches your home design.

While the fabric pieces are stitched with each other by machine to make sure tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton fabrics make up the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched in between those 2 layers, however, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting guaranties both heat and also superb washing results.

Almost all of our quilts are sizable enough to relieve the need for a dust ruffle and pillow shams. Just as bed heights are different, each quilt's sizing varies. We publish the quilt's dimensions together with the estimated drop for you to compare to the dimensions you are trying to find. Definitely do your measuring ahead of your purchase!

Are our quilts washable?

Yes, these quilts are indeed machine-washable! We suggest adhering to these guidelines for the best care of your heirloom quilt:

Amish Homemade Quilt Facts

Over the centuries, numerous methodologies have been perfected to make it easier for quilters to piece multi-angled quilts together. One of these procedures is named paper piecing, which is routinely utilized to compose the complicated corners of the Mariner's Compass quilts. Paper piecing, as it title indicates, uses a particular paper pattern onto which the material fragments are sewn. The pattern leads the quilter to accurately stitch the pieces together so that the finalized top will lie out evenly. Methods such as this are an effective aid to our quilters!
